What are the new vehicle inspection regulations in Beijing for 2021?
1 Answers
Beijing's new vehicle inspection regulations include three major changes: digitalization of inspection labels, increased inspection fees, and expansion of exemption scope. The details are as follows: 1. Digitalization of inspection labels: Electronic inspection certificates have the same legal effect as paper certificates. Vehicles that have obtained electronic inspection certificates no longer need to display paper labels, and traffic authorities will not penalize vehicles for not displaying (or pasting) inspection labels. Electronic inspection certificates can be downloaded and saved on mobile phones for offline presentation when needed. 2. Increased inspection fees: Due to the implementation of the China VI emission standards, private car owners will face more inspection items. 3. Expansion of exemption scope: Non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now included in the exemption scope. For non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years. Private cars with 9 seats or fewer do not require on-site inspections within the first 6 years. After 6 years, private cars with 9 seats or fewer and within 10 years will have their inspection frequency relaxed from once a year to once every two years. This means that within 10 years, private cars only need to undergo on-site inspections twice, in the 6th and 8th years.
